Teresa Syms, President

Encouraging YOU Radio

Teresa’s Entrepreneurial heart started after a long journey from Human Resources, Accounting, Hairdressing and being a caregiver.

Given the chance to rethink her life several years after a near-death motor vehicle accident, Teresa focused on working from home. She entered the virtual world and excelled at Coordinating two Internet Radio Shows through her company Syms Solutions.

Soon she discovered the need for a good internet Radio Station where people can share with wisdom, expertise and information. Teresa partnered with her husband, Don, who has always been her main Tech Support, and Encouraging YOU Radio.com was born. Together, their mission is, Motivating the World Through Conversation.

Teresa’s two main missions throughout her life have been to write a book, which she has now done. A Century of Secrets, takes you four generations into the core of family life; shows you it is possible to survive brutality from those we call family, and rise above where we come from. Here other main mission in life is to help guide those who have survived trauma, lost their personal power, or those looking for personal growth. Her company, Sterling Silver Coaching, was launched in the fall of 2016. “Life is transformational… Sterling Silver Coaching can help you transform yours.”
